        Hello Justin ,
        What is the latest version # of the aic7xxx driver ?
        Where is the latest version of the aic7xxx driver ?
        I've been to:
                http://people.freebsd.org/~gibbs/linux/
        and it shows 6.2.5 . My kernel 2.4.19 says 6.2.6 .
        An email from you to the list mentions you rolling a 6.2.7 quite
        sometime ago . Help !-} . Tia , JimL
